destitute by kindly deeds and generous bene-
factions, and thus make Thanksgiving day a
festival OF abundance and praise in every home
and heart throughout the commonwealth

GRINDERS CONSUMPTION.
Fatal Disease Caused by the Inhalation
OF Metal Dust.

a Fatal Disease Caused by the Inhalation
OF Metal Dust
DIR. Canedy, of Shelburne Falls,
Mass, recently read paper before the
Franklin District Medical Society on
grinders consumption, being the re-
suits of his observations on the
grinders employed by cutlery COM
pany at that place, numbering, on an
average. forty men and boys for the
past twenty-five years. During the ten
years just ended, twenty-three grinders
have died with chronic disease of the
air-passages. and three are now con-
fined to the house with similar affec-
tons, and five in whom the disease has
made considerable progress are still at
work in the cutlery. OF all the occu-
patiOns in which the workers are COM
PEELED TO inhaie an atmosphere loaded
with irritating dust, as coal-mining and
iron and metal polishing, none seems
more certain or fatal in its effects than
grinding. Investigations made at
Sheffield. Eng, fix the average period
which grinders can work at thirteen
years The first symptom which mani
tests itself is cough, soon followed by
shOrtness of breath upon exertion, as
walking uphill. During all this time
an infammatory process is going on
in the lung. which results in
gangrenous or purulent con-
dition; the patient having fever,
and often a terrible cough. During
this attack the patient is confined to
bed from ten to twenty weeks. After
six weeks an abscess forms in the lung.
and, when the pus is expectorated, i'm
provement begins. The progress of
some cases is exceedingly slow; some
Of the patients living ten years or more,
after being compelled to leave the shop
by their cough, most of the time in
chronic invalidism, and dying at last
from the exhaustion consequent upon
pulmonary disease.
In spite of all treatment, the inevita-
BILE tendency of The disease seems to be
toward a fatal termination, and DR..
Canedy states that he has never seen
any recoveries. The picture which is
given us in this paper is a most dis
tressing one; and it would seem that
some attention should be paid TO the
subject by those in power. The inn
provements which have been made in
unhealthy trades by the substitution of
sanitary for unsanitary conditions have
been so marked that some of them can
certainly be applied to the reduction of
the great suffering and mortality among
the cutlery grinders. The State Board
of Health can here doubtless find an
opportunity to do more good work in a
field in which it has SO long and SO well
labored. Science
